@enriquemoon Enrique, and I hope you are reborn a moral person if there is a next life (which I seriously doubt). How can you wish for killing and jump up-and-down against killing all in the same breath?
@enriquemoon well then i hope your reborn as a beef com on an american farm so u can get slaughtered alot more violently then this, your contradicting yourself because some time in your life im sure you've eaten meat, do uk what they do to animals befor slaughter? they are usually tortured exstensivly because the adrenalin makes the meat more tender, so go learn the circle of life befor u comment on it
Actually that's not true... your thinking of fish. Snakes grow regardless of the size of their enclosure. You could have a columbian boa in a 20 gal tank and give it regular feedings and it WILL out grow the enclosure. The way it works is, it depends on how often the snake is fed. The more you feed the snake the faster it grows, the less you feed the snake the less it grows. If you don't believe me look it up. I use to think that snakes would only grow as big as their enclosure too.
No, it is possible for it to be 7 months. If it is 7 months the only way it could be that big at that age is that it must have been power fed. Other than that and if it wasn't power fed then he must have got the age wrong.
your eventually gonna end up with a mouse/rat stickin its teeth in your snake,makin it one ugly snake. Thats always the risk guys not the is it nice is it not nice debate but the FACT that the animal you care about could be hurt.
Nice idea but not responsible I agree. Of course it looked cool but that had DANGER written all over it for owner and snake. I own 2 boas and I feed them frozen rats now feeding live is not recommended but if you do then you shouldnt let a snake stick his head with 2 mice in the box! Its unsafe! Cool video though but again not a good idea!
have kept snakes since fuck knows when,this is a shit irresponsible way to feed your snakes, This guy is running the serious risk of getting bitten,an idiot.
the live prey fed to snakes are called feeder mice or rats and are bred to be used for just that purpose to be feeder mice or rats, maybe some of you on here leaving negative comments to a responsible snake owner who knows what he is doing should do a little research first!! i have i spent the last 15 yrs studying herpetology!! and for those who put bad comments and havnt a clue what herpetology is!! DONT COMMENT!!!
Both arguments are true. It's nature, the snakes eats the mouse. Nothing out of the ordinary. Mostly all snake diets consist of mice,birds and other small prey.
It's not nature because both animals are under mankind rule. With that said, the snake is much better off under mankind rule than in the wild. Snakes in the wild don't last very long. They get prey on by others and new Born's hardly grow up to adulthood.
Also, it' not like he is feeding the snake a puppy. They breed mice for this purpose. I don't mind people finding this harsh. It's not the best fate in the world. Though, it's a way of life.
Do you guys get all rowdy when you run into an a exterminator? ( for those who find this totally inappropriate)
In nature the prey has come out on top many of times. Don't forget snakes are prey to other animals also and nothing is natural when we bring any animal into our homes. Of course captive snake comes out on top all the time. It's given domesticated prey which is not the same as wild prey and the owner will defend the snake if it's being harmed. That too isn't likely because the prey is not aggressive because of the domestication. A replica of nature? Not at all.
why the fuck dont all you guys quite argueing about what is right and what is wrong. who gives a shit!! its soo fucking annoying listening to all you pussies complain about " the poor little mouseyyy" just shut the fuck up> you arent going to stop the people who feed there snakes live foood soo stop wasting your time. pussies
This is not nature asshole. Extreme predators of this magnitude weren't put on this planet to be caged up to be used in this way. Dude, you one ignorant fuckin' moron. This isn't how it's ssupposed to be.
You say, In the wild they have predators and "shit". What does that mean.."and shit?". Yeah,they have predators in the wild. That's nature dude, it's how it's supposed to be. This crap here isn't.
Your wrong dude..the owner becomes the head predator. You can defend all you want for your bloodlust addictions. Playing around with nature in this way is ethically wrong and not in line with the laws of nature.
it isnt ethically wrong and how do i or other owners become head predaotr? and i dont do it becuase i want o see it kill a damn mouse/rat i do it to feed my snake not bloodlust
some people make me laugh!! it is natural snake behavior to eat live prey!! and by offering live prey this owner is enriching the live of the snake. so how can you complain!! bet you dont all complain when you watch a documentry on tv of a lion hunting a gazelle!!! you dont like it DONT WATCH AND NEVER GET A SNAKE!!!
does anybody that posts comments about these great videos educated at all learn to fucking spell and have better sentence structure and snakes eating rodents and pigs or whatever is life they are all at the bottom of the food chain get over it and move bitches
omg u guys are hipies its nature it doesnt matter if the mice has a chance ur not besides thats one way the snake cant get bitten and it prob dont eat frozen thawed mice ever thought bout that?
your a sick bastard u know tht, why post a video on youtube of a snake eating a mouse, and your text ( couldn't wait) u fed it the mouse and wer waiting for it to eat the mouse, sicko....
You don't know that. Many of rats and other rodents have beaten a snake in the wild. A wild rat would have most likely done some damange to the snake. They're makeup is quite different from the "feeder rats" as you call them. Rats that you get from a pet store or breeder have had the wild gene bred out. They don't behave in the same way as a wild rat and are more docile.
you're all retarded. letting your pet starve to death is abuse. animals eat other animals in the wild all the time. it's called nature. you, yourself eat cows, pigs, and chicken all the time. someone has to kill it to put it in your plate. cows are mass produced to feed humans and feeder mice are mass produced to feed snakes. if you had a pet, would you let it starve to death? that would be gay.
i have had everyone in my family argue with me about me feeding my snake live food, everyone gets pissed because its "not natural" so i understand where you are coming from PATCH, but with my experience in snakes, we do not get some sort of excitment feeding it live mice, its simply for the fact of the nutrient that are in the mice....
Why live? people are saying it's cruel to manipulate nature and all that crap... is keeping a snake in a fucking tank not more cruel than feeding it a dead mouse opposed to live? Thick cunt.
u idiot mice arent food there pets,food?i mean thats only in wild not someone getting a mouse from a box and droping in so a boa can eat it.think alittle next time please
A pet or companion animal is an animal kept for companionship and enjoyment, as opposed to livestock, laboratory animals, working animals or sport animals, which are kept for economic reasons.
I doubt that mouse was ever needed for companionship or enjoyment. Therefore it is not a pet, meaning it is not pet abuse.
u go to a pet store, there are pet mice and feeder mice, those are feeder mice. farmed for reptile foods. whats real pet abuse is not feeding the boas. or feed it forzen thawed malnutricious foods.
Patch, stop being a hippie, its perfectly natural for carnivorus animals to eat other animals. There is nothing evil about it, it's just the way of nature. Besides, its not about the pleasure of the owner as you seem to
think, its about the well-being of the snake, pre-killed food lack important nutritions that are lost in the freezing process, making
live food a better choice, lest the snake become malnourished.
I am perfectly aware of the trials of nature and the course between predator and prey, and it is in no way evil. They have no choice in the matter. However you do have a choice to do as you will and you chose to take a snake, have it as a pet (a pet that I remind you shows no sort of affection at all, and Im sure if you were small enough, it would eat you as well), and feed it live food who have no chance at all of getting away. How the hell is that natural!?
But what really ticks me off, is that you would film this and show it off to all your friends and the world saying "Oh how cool is this we can watch something be scared to death, killed slowly, AND be swallowed up! Oh boy lets watch!" And thus, I stand by my first previous statement, especially concerning my last sentence.
You might have a point about showing it off can be considered macabre, but that's just a matter of personal opinion, I didn't make the vid and I'm not judging the one who did, after all we can choose not to watch it if we don't like it. Also, in the wild the prey would have almost as small a chance of getting away, since boas are excellent at stealth, often coming within centimeters of its prey before they strike without the prey even realizing the snake was there.
You are wrong about the snake though, boa constrictors make great pets if you are into reptiles, because of their gentle nature (against humans, not prey :p) the more you pick them up and handle them, the more used they become to humans and will grow to be rather affectionate, at least towards their owner. In the wild, I'm sure a large enough (and hungry enough) boa could/would eat a human, but the captive ones do not consider us prey.
Finally, pre-killed food lack important nutritions that are lost in the freezing process, thus making live food a better choice, lest your snake becomes malnourished. Also, hunting is part of their instincts, and not letting them hone that makes the snake sluggish and apathic and can cause it to die prematurely (normal lifespan being about 30 years) On a side note, there is no way in hell the boa in this vid is 7 months, my own is 6 months and is 60cm long and about as thick as my thumb.
sure they show affection. it relaxes on my neck all the time. very tame. i can pet her head hold it, open it anytime of the day. never ever tried to bite. u just dont have one ur self so u assume they dont show anything.
dude, all whats up with all ur comments man? all marked as spams. Those people who argu that feeding live is inhumane, well it isnt. but thats how snakes to it. Suck it up, try to get laid rather than defending rats.
i feed mine thawd but live is fine i jaust do it so i dont haft to go to the pet store all the time also my ball pythons eat live or frozenAND MY DRAGON EATS BABY MICE
animalxlover how can you call yourself an animal lover it is inhumane to feed them alive and i know they do that in the while but that fact is right now this snake is not in the wild they are wild animals and shouldnt be kept as pets it is inhumane
Dogs were once wild animals. So were cats. Is it inhumane to keep them as pets? Just because you dont see the massive ammounts of animals that go into their kibble doesnt mean that they dont die to become food.
I am going to avenge the death of this mouse i promise i will. i will kill you i will track you down and kill you like hanibal lecter i will kill you and eat you and my sister will fart on your face you selfish hamburger
very pretty snake... i have a pretty young boa... lots of bark and stumps in my cage... i don't have that many bright orange and blue buckets in my cage though... big cage... should do more w/ the upper half though...
You just need to quit bitchin you dumb bitch, what were they going to feed it Lucky Charms? Just shut the hell up because this same thing would go on in nature, would you cry about it then too?
Um..feeding as much as he wants would be powerfeeding which is very bad for the snake. IF he was actually powerfed then the snake would have almost a 100% chance of living less than 5 years. Don't give advice about something you know nothing about.
To the poster,he looks big for 7 months. How long is he? Is that a BCI or BCC? BCI's average about 26in or so for 7 months..
Boas are prone to obesity because they will just keep on eating and eating if given the opportunity, this leads to heart problems for the snake and an early death.
i hope the next time u feed the snake like that i hope the mpuse pops out of the box and on to the floor

As long as you keep giving them their prey they won't. You will definitely be on on the menue.

what i thought was cool about this video was the boa picked one mouse out of 3. lucky for the other 2 that gets to live a couple minutes more.

dude, all whats up with all ur comments man? all marked as spams. Those people who argu that feeding live is inhumane, well it isnt. but thats how snakes to it. Suck it up, try to get laid rather than defending rats.

animalxlover how can you call yourself an animal lover it is inhumane to feed them alive and i know they do that in the while but that fact is right now this snake is not in the wild they are wild animals and shouldnt be kept as pets it is inhumane

Dogs were once wild animals. So were cats. Is it inhumane to keep them as pets? Just because you dont see the massive ammounts of animals that go into their kibble doesnt mean that they dont die to become food.

Thank you nycflip22 for ur response.
ur right i should start feeding him small rats.
this is a bcc, he was 7 mounths old when the video was captured- his age is 100% correct,The Breeder is a close friend.
About power feeding- wouldnt the snake eat untill it is full in nature?

Um..feeding as much as he wants would be powerfeeding which is very bad for the snake. IF he was actually powerfed then the snake would have almost a 100% chance of living less than 5 years. Don't give advice about something you know nothing about.
To the poster,he looks big for 7 months. How long is he? Is that a BCI or BCC? BCI's average about 26in or so for 7 months..
Why not feed him one small rat a week?

Boas are prone to obesity because they will just keep on eating and eating if given the opportunity, this leads to heart problems for the snake and an early death.
